hey chat

I’m not sure whether I should make a Light Domain cleric or a Tempest Domain cleric
because I am so spineless I have decided to defer to the woke mob for advice

things that will not change:

  • My character is a metallic dragonborn (type is optional)
  • My character is a cleric between those two domains
  • No multiclassing

I would not describe myself as “hot” in any other situation.

I’m a

  • overweight,
  • ugly
  • stupid (at least academically)
    person.

My only positive trait is my humor (and probably my empathy), but that’s not a very “hot” trait.

rt lesbian divorce rates
like a lot of lgbt statistics, there is usually an asterisk

I frequently bring up the often cited ‘lesbian abuse statistics’ as an example of how not understanding how the statistic was found creates problems

Marluna. Everyone in the world at least once had issues with their self-image and if you’re afraid that maybe you can’t connect dots on things as easily that’s solvable.

You shouldn’t describe yourself with words like that.

tl;dr

lesbian abuse rate is made up a significant amount by men
there’s a lot of valid ways to read into that

I know, i know, but the truth is the truth.
I tried to change multiple times, during the decades, but none of them felt me for myself.

You don’t allow to call me myself “hot”, but you don’t allow to call myself “not hot” what should I call myself then? Average Joe?

I just sent a voice message of me barking like a dog for 30 seconds due to a request of a friend in a group chat. I feel like any semblance of ego or self-respect has left my body after i listened to it

The part with hotness was a joke.

The part with telling yourself you’re a bunch of negative things it’s serious.

You can fix your looks if you’re concerned about them, hairstyles, dresses. For weight, I know it’s a tight uphill battle, try home cooking and avoid fattening food at all costs, as you can’t outfight a bad diet. For smartening up, for me personally I just go around on wikipedia and then just read paragraphs and paragraphs of text, I was a stage in my life where I feel brainrotting was affecting my cognitive capacity making me feel stuck until I get back to studying for my finals.

Everything is changeable. But one important thing starts with mindset that helps you with actually solving the problems you have with yourself. Everything about you is changeable (google locus of control and growth mindset), your bad qualities are often exaggerated by your consciousness (see spotlight effect), you can change yourself. However if you just say you’re ugly, dumb or whatever, it will beat yourself up from even going on your self-improvement journey.

The more often you tell yourself you’re ugly and stupid. The more intrusive thoughts will appear in your mind echoing the sentiment trying to beat yourself down. Don’t use these words.

The actual truth is, is that, yes, you have weight problems or that you have a bad self-perception of self. But you can try your best to fix them.
